Finished chapter 3 at around 18.8k words. I am pretty sure I can wrap it all up in the next one... I am either creating a pretty good fic or I have somehow found new ways to create word crimes. But the light at the end of the tunnel is so bright.

Wow, full fic draft completed with only editing left!

And that isn't a bad word count for a 4 chapter story! My ellipsus back up can show me the reading time, too, wonder what it is after working on it for nearly 5 weeks...

Ah. Fair.

Step 1) look up Janet Ruiz on tumblr for I crave posts about her

Step 2) scroll through massive walls of text of Ben Reilly/reader fics that are not under a readmore cut and for some fucking reason write Janet (100% fluent English speaker in canon) speaking outside her speech pattern so badly my bilingual ass who also speaks English as a second language enters an intense state of annoyance and disgust

Step 3) leave search tab as I have discovered a whopping number of ZERO post about best girl herself, every post in the search being about the old white guy though (I like him too but HELLO??)

Spider-memes part 3 because I had the weirdest internet issues of my life the last 12-ish hours... wow.

Special one because I had issues writing which resulted joking about the alternative plan B in case plan A failed. I do not think a child should be giving you advice on dating... anyway.

—✍️|| Random complaint of today:

The OOC character debate is not "he would not fucking say that" in a sense of simply meaning it's overall not the character's lexicon and therefore is entirely wrong with no further debate allowed. More so it's not convincing in a way to make me believe that the character under the circumstances would arrive to the conclusions that they have.

If the author can justify it in their story, then it's not OOC. The issue with OOC complaints is that the authors don't even fucking try. They just wing the ever living fuck out of it and then you have 60 year old gruff men using gen alpha slang that they would have never fucking heard in their entire life. Now that shit is plainly cringe! Build a case for it, however, and the opinion changes.

Writing, especially fic, is convincing and building cases, is it not? Good fic specifically is about playing nice with the lore and knowing what you want to say, what you're getting at and the reason why. By the end, if your disregard for canon is so strong, clearly you have no business writing fanfiction and should be redirecting your passion to original works.

Side note: if you can easily file off the serial numbers and pass it as original fiction then it is not good fanfiction.

When are we getting Alex out of the void, Justin has been like this for the last [checks watch] 276 days...

You know, if I was to nitpick about Spider-Noir regardless of all the beautifully and well done aspects of it... it would be that the plot takes place in 1933, Ben goes to see Great Guy in a cinema in episode 4. That movie came out in 1936.

Fascinating choice, given the scene is the detecting main character talking to his love interest that has a shared name with somebody in Ben's life... anyway. Bye.

actually kinda funny to me that fanfiction is known as a hobby for cringe 13 year olds because personally over half of the fanfic authors i know are married 30 year olds with mediocre admin jobs they attend to inbetween posting chapters of their latest gay sex epic adventure
